Course Overview

A Championship Setting with Breathtaking Views

The picturesque Cedar Point Golf Course on NAS Patuxent River is a par 72 championship course that stretches 6,714 yards from the longest tees. The course features well-bunkered greens with narrow, tree-lined bermudagrass fairways and spectacular views of the Chesapeake Bay and Patuxent River.

Originally opened in 1947, the course was redesigned and opened in its current layout in 1954. A complete renovation in 1998–1999 introduced new USGA bentgrass greens, upgraded bunkers, modern irrigation, and a full-service clubhouse. A second bunker renovation was completed in 2014, keeping the course in championship condition.

On June 17, 2026, this storied course will serve as the backdrop for one of Southern Maryland's most prestigious golf events — with the Blue Angels performing overhead during the PAX NAS Airshow.

Benefiting Charity

Ready 9 Aviation Academy

Ready 9 Aviation Academy (R9AA) is a 501(c)(3) nonprofit corporation dedicated to promoting aviation as a STEM career field through the education of youth and adults in Southern Maryland.

Named after the Ready Rooms aboard aircraft carriers — the sacred spaces where naval aviators plan, brief, and grow together — R9AA is building the foundation for a program called "Every Student Flies," which will offer every high school-aged student in Southern Maryland a free hands-on flight in an airplane.

Southern Maryland is home to an extraordinarily robust aviation industry, anchored by NAS Patuxent River's flight test, engineering, and program management workforce. R9AA leverages this unique environment to shape the next generation of aviators.

Your participation in the Pax River 250 Golf Invitational directly supports R9AA's mission to bridge the gap between existing STEM programs and real, hands-on aviation experience.

Every Student Flies
Free hands-on flight experience for every high school student in Southern Maryland.
